"How serious!" Xiang Xueer was hiding in her clothes and had no idea what was happening outside. She didn't expect that this idiot would get so badly injured just to save her.
"Cough cough!" Li Yunyang suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his head began to feel heavy. His vision started to blur, and he fainted.
"Li Yunyang! Li Yunyang!" Xiang Xueer quickly reached out to check his pulse at his neck. It seemed he had just fainted and was not in immediate danger. She breathed a sigh of relief and then told the others to put him on the horse: "It looks like he's seriously injured. We need to hurry back to the city and find a doctor!"
Blue Dye looked at the injured Li Yunyang, feeling guilty that he had let him get hurt so badly while he was present. He quickly followed the two back to the clinic they had visited before.
In the middle of the night, someone knocked on the doctor's door. The two gently placed Li Yunyang on the bed, and the doctor removed his clothes. His body was covered in bites and scratches from Vampire Bats, causing Xiang Xueer’s heart to ache, and she couldn't help but scold him: "This idiot, when will he stop worrying about me? What a reckless fool!"
At that moment, the doctor examined his dark eye bags and lips and said, "Although the Vampire Bat's venom is not very potent, it seems he has absorbed some venom through the wounds. We should detoxify him first before applying medicine to bandage the wounds!"
Qingtian quickly took out Bear Gall Poisonous Herb Juice from his belongings and handed it to the doctor: "This medicine can be taken orally; as long as he drinks it, the toxin can be cleared!"
The doctor held the medicine bottle up to Li Yunyang's lips, but no matter how he tried to feed him, Li Yunyang's teeth were tightly clenched. The liquid dribbled down his lips, and Lan Ran Qingtian shook his head: "What should we do? If he can't drink the medicine, what can we do?"
Xiang Xueer frowned and snatched the medicine bottle from the doctor's hand: "I'll do it!"
She pinched his chin; indeed, he was clenching his teeth tightly. Perhaps due to the pain, without saying a word, Xiang Xueer poured the medicine into her mouth and slowly leaned down to kiss him directly on the lips, completely ignoring that there were two big men watching nearby.
Qingtian and the doctor quickly turned their heads away in embarrassment. Xiang Xueer kissed him and then slipped her tongue into his mouth, prying open his teeth with force until finally, the medicine flowed into his mouth.
He wiped away the remaining liquid from his lips and took a sip for himself. After a short while, Li Yunyang's dark complexion gradually faded away, and his tightly clenched teeth began to loosen.
"Ah!" Xiang Xueer finally sighed, a weight lifted off her shoulders. She turned to the doctor and said, "Doctor, it seems the poison has cleared; we can bandage the wound now."
Once the wound was bandaged, Xiang Xueer stayed by his side all night, occasionally checking his slightly feverish forehead and replacing it with a cool cloth. His entire body was wrapped in bandages, and the white cloth on his chest was faintly stained with red blood.
Looking at his tightly closed eyes, Xiang Xueer reached out to touch his long eyelashes, tracing down his high nose until her fingertips brushed against his thin, icy lips. The image of him covering her with his clothes kept replaying in her mind.
From childhood to now, apart from her father, this was the first time a man was willing to sacrifice his life to protect her. A smile of understanding crept onto Xiang Xueer's lips as she murmured, "Fool, you really think of yourself as my husband? You old peacock!"
Feeling tired, Xiang Xueer leaned over and rested her head on the edge of his bed. She didn't expect to sleep until dawn. Suddenly, she felt someone stroking her hair. She quickly lifted her head and saw that Li Yunyang was awake, his big eyes looking at her…
"You’re awake!" Xiang Xueer quickly got up and touched his forehead; the fever had subsided. She happily rubbed her bloodshot eyes and said, "Great! You're finally okay. I'll go get you some water!"
Just as Xiang Xueer was about to turn around, she felt someone grab her hand. Turning back, she saw Li Yunyang holding her arm and pulling her into his embrace, resting his head on her shoulder while shaking his head. "I'm not thirsty. Are you okay? Did you get hurt?"
This idiot still has the energy to worry about me. Xiang Xueer suddenly felt her heart race and quickly pushed him away, a bit annoyed as she scolded him, "I'm fine! But you—next time you encounter danger, just hide! I've never seen such a foolish man; I'm much tougher than you. You don't need to worry about me!"
"Don't need to worry? Then why are your eyes so red?" Li Yunyang looked into her eyes and slowly struggled to sit up. The pain from his wounds tore through him like a knife. He huffed in frustration, "Next time, just don’t hang me from a tree; I’d appreciate that!"
"Hehehe!" Xiang Xueer chuckled softly as she brought over some water from the table and helped him drink a little. "Got it! I won't hang you again; anyway, even if I did hang you, Taotie would find you smelly and wouldn’t bite!"
"You!" Just as Li Yunyang was about to get angry, the pain from his wounds made beads of sweat form on his forehead. Xiang Xueer quickly set down the cup and looked down at his chest. "What’s wrong? Didn’t I tell you not to move around? Look at you; you're almost like a second-class disabled person!"
"Marry a chicken and follow a chicken; marry a dog and follow a dog. Even if I'm disabled, you're still my wife!" As soon as Li Yunyang finished speaking, Qingtian walked over and knocked on the door before entering with a worried expression. Seeing that he was awake and alert brought relief as he said, "I'm so glad to see you're okay!"
"What's wrong with you? You don't look so good!" Xiang Xueer looked him over for a while, and Qingtian slowly said, "I just came back from the market and saw many refugees. After asking around, I found out that several nearby villages were attacked by monsters last night. It is said that there was a Taotie among them, and many people reportedly died!"
"Taotie attacked the village?" Li Yunyang also found it very strange. "I've only heard that magical beasts usually don't come to the market. It's too odd for a Taotie to lead monsters to attack a village."
Qingtian agreed with Li Yunyang and nodded, "Yes, I think so too. I originally disagreed with hunting the Taotie, but since it dares to harm the common people, I can't stand by anymore. I've decided to join you in hunting the Taotie and eliminate this threat!"
Li Yunyang turned to glance at Xiang Xueer, who seemed ready to object, but she suddenly jumped up and laughed, "That's great! With you, the Holy Ten Exorcists, helping me, my chances of subduing the Taotie have increased significantly!"
"Hey!" Li Yunyang sighed as he lay on the bed. "I mean, Dead Girl, look at me—how can I hunt a Taotie like this? Let's forget about it. If I end up losing my life, I won't be able to see my master again!"
Xiang Xueer looked at his extreme reluctance and pouted as she grabbed Qingtian's arm. "It's fine; you don't have to go. Qingtian and I can handle it together!"
She deliberately emphasized the words "together," and seeing their intimate gesture made Li Yunyang shout angrily, "You Dead Girl! You can't go anywhere without my permission!"
Qingtian chuckled quietly and discreetly turned to leave the room; he didn't want to get caught in the middle of their argument and risk being drowned in Li Yunyang's jealousy.
Xiang Xueer shrugged her shoulders. "Well, if you're worried, I'll wait until you're better before we go together!"
Li Yunyang held back his frustration and turned away in annoyance. "Hmph! I've realized that I must have owed you something in my past life; how else would I end up with such a crazy girl like you?"
